---------------------------------------------------------------------
[~stoty] thanks. I had opened a PR against 4.x (last night), but it hasn't been
picked up by Yetus yet (https://github.com/apache/phoenix/pull/903). Have we
experimented with Yetus PR integration on non-master branches?

> We are targeting PHOENIX-6141 for 4.17. Until we have it, we should aim at
> making DDL operations resilient to orphan parent->child linking rows. DDL
> operations identified which can fail due to orphan rows are:
> # Any ALTER TABLE ADD/DROP/SET calls on the base table T will fail if there
> are orphan links from T to some already dropped view. This happens because
> the call to
> [MetaDataEndpointImpl.findAllChildViews()|https://github.com/apache/phoenix/blob/fece8e69b9c03c80db7a0801d99e5de31fe15ffa/phoenix-core/src/main/java/org/apache/phoenix/coprocessor/MetaDataEndpointImpl.java#L2142]
> from
> [MetaDataEndpointImpl.mutateColumn()|https://github.com/apache/phoenix/blob/fece8e69b9c03c80db7a0801d99e5de31fe15ffa/phoenix-core/src/main/java/org/apache/phoenix/coprocessor/MetaDataEndpointImpl.java#L259]
> fails with a TableNotFoundException.
> # Any DROP TABLE/VIEW call without CASCADE will fail even though there are
> actually no child views since the orphan rows wrongly indicate that there are
> child views.
> # During the upgrade path for UpgradeUtil.syncUpdateCacheFreqAllIndexes(),
> we will just ignore any orphan views (for ex, see
> [this|https://github.com/apache/phoenix/blob/fece8e69b9c03c80db7a0801d99e5de31fe15ffa/phoenix-core/src/main/java/org/apache/phoenix/util/UpgradeUtil.java#L1368-L1374]),
> but the call to UpgradeUtil.upgradeTable() will fail with a
> TableNotFoundException for each orphan view.
> # During a CREATE TABLE/VIEW, we try to drop any views from the previous life
> of that table/view, however we might end up dropping a legitimate view (with
> the same name) which is on another table/view because of this.
> Before dropping any views that we see from a parent->child link, we need to
> ensure that the view is in fact a child view of the same table/view we think
> it is an orphan of.
